Only 8 were starts though. You're clueless if you think he's a bad player. The setup of the team last year was absolutely not built to his strengths.

At five million he well turn out to have been a steal but I am very pleased we didn’t manage to get him at the 20 odd million we allegedly bid the previous season

Talksport have decided in their latest clickbait (which worked) round up that we should be singing William from Wolfsburg

If we are taking a punt let’s adopt this attitude

Interesting that the window SLAMS shut just 3.5 weeks after we get back from Austria.

With 1-4 singings to be done, things may happen again soon...

Based on what we’ve seen so far, there surely can’t be much doubt about that.....

At times £5m has looked generous.

If this weren't NSC I'd be amazed if anyone has seen enough of him to form a valid opinion.

As it I'll console myself with the fact that an opinion has been formed AFTER hes played a couple of game. :lol:

Don’t get me wrong, I was delighted when we signed him, but so far Palace game aside he has been disappointing.

He has looked void of any touch and has a little bit of stupidity in him. The same sort Knockaert gets crucified for. (See WBA away).

Hasnt he played a significant number of games or is it my memory?

Probably like AJ needs a proper pre-season, and dare I say may need to play in a two, with our number one striker [emoji6]

Possibly, but not based on what we’ve seen so far.

i think so. i would prioritise 2 x cm and an rb first, you?
obvs, if bloom and potter are able to secure the sevices of their football fantasy cf, i wouldn't complain :O

Andone's 79th minute winner v Huddersfield at the Amex was a rare moment of joy in a dismal 2nd half of the season.

I think we need 1 x striker- GM replacement (tall and mobile), 1 x midfield - creative,
1 x RB cover

Re the second midfielder, I’m very confident Molumby can step up.

The other issue is Trossard is he a ‘no. 10’ or a winger. If a winger we may need to sign a no.10 (or whatever people call them these days [emoji2]). Perhaps that is AJ’s future?

I disagree with the touch comment. His initial hold up play is decent but he frequently had no choice but to take the ball on the turn and try to run defenders. I think he would benefit from a more mobile number 10 giving him a quicker alternative.

What about Rodrigo from Valencia? I'm surprised we're not excited about that rumour! Only £30m+ apparently and just need to see off Everton, West Ham and oh Barcelona :glare: It really is quite funny why would someone offer that up as a rumour :lol:

Sounds a done deal to me! :wink:

He's a quality player, but there's about as much chance of me signing for the Albion as there is of him doing so.
